Hi! I found this now on reddit, there is LG G2 on the list, can we use it?!
It's the documentation by @djrbliss (Dan Rosenberg, XDA Recognized Developer)

Please check it guys, but if it's not useful, then sorry.
@dorimanx @dr87 @savoca @Cloudyfa @OptimusRs @RenderBroken @Amperific @JackpotClavin (just wanted to show it to someone who is experienced and who would have a while, it's not like i just mentioned everyone here)
EDIT: https://www.blackhat.com/us-14/briefings.html#reflections-on-trusting-trustzone
The talk will conclude with a discussion of the ramifications of this vulnerability and others like it, including a live demonstration of using it to permanently unlock the bootloader of a major Android phone.

Yepp and yepp, will have to wait for more documentation, but I'd love to be able to get dtb appended on this device's zImage without any silly downgrades.

Dan Rosenberg will be giving a demo in couple of hours demonstrating how to permanently unlock the boot loader of a major phone. So a boot loader unlock. No spoofing, although the arbitrary code execution could lead to many possibilities.

Well, seems like the G2 may be a hot phone for developers soon The phone still has the beast specs, so.
Btw, I read that S5 and M8 are patched, as we know they have Snap801, so this exploit is hardware related? If yes, then LG couldn't even relock it, i suppose, lol
Thanks @reas0n for sharing this with us. The imgur link you shared, i compared it first with the loki script but it didnt contained anythin about qsee i thought and no similair lines. If @dr87 has the way to permanently unlock the gs4 then it would be also maybe possible for the g2 like said in the imgur link you gave. Seems trustable that link. But i bet dr87 is having now some kind of top secret area 51 project to unlock the lg bootloader.
Thanks again reas0n continue your search you`re doing great.
I could also be wrong and it maybe contained in the loki script but i didnt saw it since i`m watching from my tab now.
Thanks, I want to do as much as I can for the G2 community.
Edited the thread, lol, it would be epic if he used our lovely G2 as unlocking example We just have to wait now.
I saw now that he will present at blackhat so pretty big. First i came on an website from azimuth security about galaxy s4 loki etc i just found out on that link from you that dr87 works/ is part of azimuth security so i bet he will bypass and unlock it
The security doctor will fix ill locked devices.
Maybe the device wil get unlocked before lg provides an official unlock method. Is it about me or is LG doing the same as samsung? Same with bootloader, roundicons in notification bar etc, i wonder how LG will become.
Update:
Dan performed a permanent boot loader unlock of the Moto X live. We shall see how this pans out to other devices in the coming weeks.

Since the Unlocking Tool is from Motorola, will it allow the Photon Bootloader to be unlocked without disabling 4G/WiMax on custom ROMs that require an unlocked bootloader?

No. Doesn't currently work with photon. This can easily be found out by looking at the supported devices.

It's not on the unlockable device list, but it may be in the near future.
We can sit around and wait for Motorola to do it. Or we could all sign an online petition and show them how big the community is, and how much business they'll loose if they don't unlock bootloaders!

That's amazing let's hope a miracle can be performed with the bootloader.... If not the kernel source is useless for the most part, yes I know we have safestap and loki potentially

I'm sorry, but I wouldn't touch that with an 80ft pole!!!
First off, it's not for the G3. It's L90
Second, and most important, None of the devs working on it have put it out there yet. I'm sorry, but maybe I'm too sceptical to believe that if this has been out since Aug 8th, Why is it not available here?! Or even rumor of it?
I really hope you didn't just ruin your phone. My guess is this has something to do with the T-mo version of the G3 at best. Not to be used on the Sprint version.
I got an 81ft pole if your down. Haha. Just kidding man. I hate seeing threads like this that give us hope for a minute and turn out to be snake oil.

I looked into it too and it seems legit for the phone they advertise but as you said it didn't mention the LS990 anywhere., and how jcase or no one else over here knew about it and if they did and it was legit they would share it here. Hopefully his phone isn't ruined.
no is not damage it even do a back up of the laf.img and boot.img
this looks shady if you ask me.

You're a braver person than I.
In that thread you linked, Sammyz has the partition layout. It's no where near what ours is as far as I could tell. There were many differences.
So even if you managed to get it unlocked, I would think your offsets and partition names/sizes would be wrong now.
I may be totally wrong, and I truly hope I am. But this is a risk I wouldn't recommend to anybody yet. And definitely not for me.
But to try to help you if you want to continue, AT YOUR OWN RISK, I guess you could try the recoveries in the LG G3 forums, under general. It's tethered and might be the safest, but it's also not for Sprint
Bare in mind though, Sprint Does Not have a recovery yet.

It's an unlock for a different model lg phone. At best trying it wont work - at worst you are now bricked. People can be a$$hats.....
I looked through the script and its pulling the partitions by name which is good. The thing i see that would worry me is erasing the the boot img to access fastboot, But it does backup the boot and then flashes it again. I think i might give this a go later when i grow a bigger pair...lol
Finally BUMP has been officially released by Team Codefire
@thecubed has posted a thread on G3 forum which can be found over here
BUMP for LG Devices
OP quotes as follows
What is this?
This is Bump! A new and easy way to sign boot images for most modern LG phones so they'll boot on any locked phone.
Bump an image once, and flash it to however many phones you please.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Which suggests that it will be available for our G2 too and finally we will be able to use Bumped Kernel based on Kitkat sources and with Lollipop sources too in near future.
Edit:-
It will work on our G2 too. This is the extract from the BUMP website
Will Bump work on other phones?
Bump only supports LG phones, specifically the Optimus series of phones. Bump will not work on Samsung, Motorola, HTC, or other vendor hardware.
How is Bump different from Loki?
Bump works on LG devices that have Loki patched. There is no need to downgrade your firmware to use Loki anymore.

P.S. :- I am no way associated with Team Codefire and all the credits for the work goes to the respective members of the team. Do consider donating them for their efforts. Let the good days for our G2 begin
Yes, it works on ALL LG devices. G Pad, G Pro, G Pro 2, Optimus G, G2, G2 Summit, World Leader Conference, oh wait...
